Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • Bacteria

Patrick C. Y. Woo mostly deals with Virology, Coronavirus, Genetics, Microbiology and Immunology. His research in Virology is mostly concerned with Virus. His Coronavirus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pneumonia, Alphacoronavirus, Human coronavirus HKU1, Severe acute respiratory syndrome and Coronaviridae.

His studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Streptococcus and 16S ribosomal RNA. His work carried out in the field of Immunology brings together such families of science as Internal medicine, Epidemiology and Cytokine storm. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Phylogenetics, Rhinolophus sinicus is strongly linked to Civet.

His most cited work include:

  • Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-like virus in Chinese horseshoe bats (1084 citations)
  • Characterization and Complete Genome Sequence of a Novel Coronavirus, Coronavirus HKU1, from Patients with Pneumonia (1009 citations)
  • Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV): announcement of the Coronavirus Study Group. (734 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microbiology, Virology, Genetics, Genome and Gene. His work deals with themes such as Penicillium marneffei and 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria, which intersect with Microbiology. The concepts of his Virology study are interwoven with issues in Genotype, Antibody, Immunology and Coronavirus.

Patrick C. Y. Woo has researched Immunology in several fields, including Internal medicine and Pneumonia. His studies deal with areas such as Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, Alphacoronavirus, Human coronavirus HKU1, Coronaviridae and Betacoronavirus as well as Coronavirus. His Genetics study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Laribacter hongkongensis.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virology, Microbiology, Genetics, Genome and Phylogenetic tree. His research in Virology is mostly focused on Virus. His biological study deals with issues like Virulence, which deal with fields such as Pathogen.

His Genetics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus and Human coronavirus 229E. The Genome study combines topics in areas such as DNA sequencing, Outbreak and Genetic diversity. The various areas that he examines in his Phylogenetic tree study include Zoology and Bocaparvovirus.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global Epidemiology of Bat Coronaviruses. (129 citations)
  • Molecular epidemiology, evolution and phylogeny of SARS coronavirus. (119 citations)
  • Possible Bat Origin of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2. (109 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Virus

Patrick C. Y. Woo focuses on Virology, Genetics, Hepatitis E virus, Genome and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus. His Virology study combines topics in areas such as Antibody, Antigen and Genotype. The study incorporates disciplines such as Pangolin, Recombinant virus, Multilocus sequence typing and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in addition to Genome.

He has included themes like Tylonycteris, Pipistrellus, Middle East respiratory syndrome and Betacoronavirus in his Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus study. His Betacoronavirus research includes themes of Alphacoronavirus, Respiratory system, Coronavirus and 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak.
